How to change the oil in 50hp Mercury Outboard

[@mikealangaloe1774]

The way you cut the water bottle funnel is genius. I feel like a fool having just cut the bottom off all these years and spilling it everywhere

[@wilsondondeb]

Great tutorial

[@bcroft68bc]

If you will turn the motor all the way to left, then tilt the motor upwards, you won’t get any oil on the motor.

[@mikelangston7699]

Try turning the channel lock pliers the right way

[@brandonh9415]

I was just thinking this and came to the comments to see if anyone else noticed lol

[@tieoneon1614]

It worked, didnt it? I use them every day and sometimes they dont fit the correct way

[@fishin360]

Can you use an oil extraction pump on these Outboard?

[@theoutdoorreport]

good question, sorry but we will have to get back to you on that one.

[@cesarinelmeromero2685]

Nice video thanks, where do you buy the oil change kit.?

[@iroc2019]

Hello is this the same procedure for a 50hp Evinrude

[@rexcro]

Thank you bro! 🇭🇷❤️🇺🇸

[@jjmalvitz3460]

Where did you get that yellow drip tray for the oil filter

[@theoutdoorreport]

Came in the kit

[@gregoryjones2665]

One thing I always did on my vehicles was to fill the filter a little over half full with oil before installing. Is this not necessary since the engine is vertical?

[@cybervikes12]

It’s never necessary actually

[@pspblows99]

Is it a bad idea to top off my oil with 10w-30 is its 25w-40 or vise versa?

[@theoutdoorreport]

not sure, i'd guess motor oil is motor, just keep the engine clean, but others might know better

[@bigblock67camaro]

It's better than no oil or low oil!!

[@56igadget]

Make sure either or both are synthetic don't mix the two

[@superdave579]

You didn't show the oil or filter that was used...brand, type, weight, etc etc. Would have been a perfect video other than that. So what did you use?

[@thebrotherhoodlc]

it comes with maintenance kit

[@johnmills9411]

Weight of oil required is on a sticker on top of the motor. 3 LITERS will fill it but 3 QUARTS will not fill all the way up(as this video states) but will leave you .17qts short. EVERYONE skirts this issue- or is it not an issue.

[@StevenMolitor]

You did not say how much to fill the oil capacity

[@ulysesolguin3474]

So only one quart of oil that’s all it needs?

[@MoFe12345]

3 quarts with the filter change. At least for the 40hp. Check your dipstick

[@craigfiler3779]

turn the multi grips around the correct way to undo filter dude
